SEND_LEVEL to the address of the bargraph.

Hi,

I woudn't think send_level would do since I want to show a specific level for the multi-state bargraph
on button press.

Any other ideas?

The state of the bargraph is directly correlated with the level value. For example, if you have a multi-state bargraph object with 10 states, and value range of 0 through 100, at value 1-9 State 1 would be active, 10 - 19 State 2, and so on. I don't know that there's any way to break this correlation and manually trigger states. However, a workaround in your case may be to create two MSB objects, one on top of the other, with transparency to create the desired effect you wish.

I usually just make my range low 0 or 1 and my range high the number of states or num states -1. Then what everone else has said about send_level.

Just have to make your button a multi-state bargraph not a multi-state general button.
